Maximuim Motorsports and Griggs Racing are two very good companies.

Ditto, either of those two companies will set you up right.

oh thanks, but i thought the tokico illumina's were pretty good anybody use them before, i aslo was goin to use coil overs would that set up be good.

The 5-way adjustable Tokicos work well with coilovers as long as you don't run too stiff of a spring. I ran 350lb/in coilovers up front with them for over 2 years with no problems.

ok, did you lower your car at all and if so did you put a caster camber kit on or you just left alone.

I have coilovers up front with around 2" drop. To correct the geometry issues I have MM caster/camber plates, Steeda X2 balljoints, and a bumpsteer kit.
Any more than about 1-1.5" drop will require caster/camber plates to get the camber in the right range.

Ditto.
Don't forget to get your wheel alignment checked after lowering as well. My buddy waited too long and his tires wore out on the inside of the tire.
